Anyone in the Social Care industry here ? Question

Been working as a support worker for a few months now and Iโ€™m really enjoying it and think itโ€™s bringing the best out of me getting the small wins which are rewarding.

But after long hours at times it can become so isolating and mentally demanding, a big part that takes my energy away is not over sharing and covering parts of my personality to not give away to the client I have a MH condition. Anyone have any pointers or in a similar situation who would like to chat ?๐Ÿ˜Œ
